Katathong Golf Resort & Spa – A Tranquil Golf Retreat in the Heart of Phang Nga

Tucked into a secluded valley surrounded by lush jungle and misty mountain peaks, Katathong Golf Resort & Spa offers one of the most peaceful and visually stunning rounds of golf in Southern Thailand. Located in Phang Nga, about 90 minutes from both Phuket and Khao Lak, this course blends harmoniously with its natural surroundings — creating an experience that feels more like a nature retreat than a traditional day on the course.

With waterfalls flowing alongside fairways, tropical vegetation lining every hole, and panoramic views from elevated tees, Katathong is a favorite for golfers seeking a calm, rejuvenating experience. It’s perfect for nature lovers, couples, and those looking to unwind while still enjoying a rewarding round of golf.

🌿 Built into Nature, Not on Top of It

Katathong doesn’t try to dominate its environment — it fits into it with grace. The 18-hole, par-72 layout stretches over 7,000 yards and uses the natural terrain to create a round filled with charm, rhythm, and subtle challenge. This isn’t a course where you’ll feel rushed or punished. Instead, you’ll find wide fairways that invite play, elevation changes that offer beautiful views, and water features that complement the landscape.

The front nine flows through forested terrain with occasional creeks and ponds, while the back nine opens up to broader valley views and mountain backdrops. The routing includes elevated tee boxes, hillside holes, and greens set into serene clearings, giving each section of the course its own atmosphere.

Strategic bunkering and a few tighter landing areas provide just enough challenge for experienced players while keeping the course fun and accessible for beginners or casual golfers.

⭐ Notable Highlights on the Course

⛳ Waterfall Hole (Hole 17)
One of the standout holes features a natural waterfall running beside the fairway, adding a sense of serenity and drama to the closing stretch of your round. The sound of cascading water combined with views across the valley makes this one of the most memorable holes in Southern Thailand.

⛳ Elevated Par 3s
Several short holes play from raised tees to lower greens, giving you clear sightlines framed by jungle and mountains. Club selection can be tricky with the wind, but these are some of the most picturesque tee shots on the course.

⛳ Mountain Backdrop Finishes
The final few holes at Katathong deliver breathtaking views across the entire property — especially late in the afternoon when the light cuts across the hills. It’s the kind of place where you’ll want to pause and take it all in before heading to the clubhouse.

🧘‍♂️ A Golf Course That Feels Like a Wellness Retreat

One of Katathong’s biggest draws is the peaceful, rejuvenating atmosphere. This is not a high-pressure championship setting — it’s a place to relax, breathe in fresh mountain air, and enjoy the simplicity of the game in one of Thailand’s most naturally beautiful regions.

The quiet hum of birds, the occasional splash of water, and the distant rustle of the breeze through the trees create a calming environment that turns every round into a gentle escape.

This makes the course particularly well-suited for couples, older golfers, and anyone seeking a less intense golf holiday. If you’re combining sightseeing, wellness, or romantic travel with golf, Katathong is a perfect fit.
